In the darkness, a slightly hurried footstep gradually approached, and the underground channel that had just fallen silent was awakened by light and sound.

Three figures came running from one end to the other and stopped in front of the fork in the road.

"Three roads!"

Among the figures, a woman made a surprised voice, she was wearing a white aristocratic dress, the skirt looked a little dirty because of the rubbing on the ground and the wall, it was the aristocratic daughter Lilith who followed Green and his party to find Maguire.

"Hey, Your Highness didn't leave a mark." Albert squatted on the ground and looked at it for a long time, then stood up and groped around the two walls, and finally scratched his head helplessly, a little puzzled.

In the battle to escort the sheep, Green fully demonstrated his ability, and although it cannot be assumed that he has great wisdom, it can at least be determined that he is a witty teenager.

Will he forget to leave guidance at the three-way intersection?

Albert wasn't convinced.

The young black wizard thought about it and didn't give up directly. He looked up, and while it was unlikely that he would be carved into the top of the rock, it was worth a try.

"Will he engrave the mark on it?" Lilith hugged the sleeping little fox, and her head followed Albert, who was walking around with a chestnut staff, and couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw him stretching his neck and making a sore ** from time to time.

Albert lowered his head and gasped, "...... It doesn't look like it's there. ”

He turned around, up and down, left and right, and couldn't find the mark left by Green, which couldn't help but discourage the mage a little. But then he thought of another way, he waved the staff in his hand, trying to activate the simple invisible text with mana-

It's a pity that he thought too much, and Green didn't do it at all.

"Eh, it seems that His Highness Green has indeed forgotten to make a mark." Albert lowered his staff in frustration. In the current situation, he suddenly looked forward to Grimm completing the second stage of the trial, and he didn't dare to guarantee otherwise, at least after the completion of the reviewer, the Son of the Armor would be rewarded with the spiritual connection between the contract creature, not to mention a mere canal around the city, even if it was the Minotaur Labyrinth, he was confident that he would never get lost.

"So what do we do now?" Lilith looked at Albert with some concern, I have to say that the Black Wizard whose strength has been sealed does not seem to be as reliable as Green. Looking at the three dark paths in front of her, like three giant mouths of demonic beasts that choose people to devour, the girl suddenly became a little scared, she wanted to hurry back to Green's side, it seemed that only the young man with the power of Kunali in his hand could make her feel a little at ease.

"Hmm...... There are three paths here, maybe we can divide them into three? Albert made a not-so-funny joke and saw Lilith shake her head like a rattle. As for being unhappy, it has always looked indifferent, and no one knows what it is thinking.

Or is there a so-called mind in its skull?

"Let me find it again," the Mage broke the deadlock, crouching down to check the ground again, "Maybe I was in too much of a hurry just now, and I didn't necessarily miss something." ”

The aristocratic daughter bit her lip, she didn't dare to act on her own anyway, she just prayed to Luna, hoping that Albert really had just made a mistake.

Then the black wizard said "huh"-

"Did you find anything?"

Lilith crouched down in surprise and followed Albert's gaze, only to see a smooth floor tile in confusion.

She turned her head and looked around her feet, almost all of the floor tiles looked like this, and they didn't look like they were marked.

"Did you find anything?"

Albert frowned, and gently tapped the ground with the end of the broken chestnut staff, "Strange, this floor tile is a whole layer thin, as if it ...... It's like it's been polished by something."

When he said this, Lilith felt the same way, but in her mind, it didn't seem to be a big fuss that this place had been abandoned for a hundred years, and the floor tiles were corroded and uneven, right?

But her little head immediately opened up.

"Ah, could it be that Mr. Green cut it with his sword?"

This attracted Albert's attention, but unfortunately, the Servant Mage only cast a strange look at Lilith, "It's not a matter of swordsmanship, Miss Lilith, it's a matter of tools - at least I don't think His Highness Grimm has broken the Flame Shadow Sword into a bricklaying knife." ”

"Bricklaying knives? What is that? ”

Albert was silent for a moment, "...... It's a very sharp artifact, Miss Lilith. ”

"Oh."

This answer was obviously perfunctory, and the nobleman's daughter noticed it and immediately kept silent, and Albert was happy to be quiet, squatting on the ground and carefully examining the thin bricks. At this moment, Lilith noticed that the little fox in her arms moved—she was a little surprised, the little thing was indeed asleep, but since she held it in her arms, the little one had not moved at all except the rise and fall of his chest, but now he seemed to wake up, and writhed restlessly.

"What's wrong with it?"

Lilith was a little flustered, she was not allowed to have pets at home, and she had no idea what had happened to the little fox.

Albert glanced at it, and he wasn't quite sure, "Eh, hungry...... Right? ”

Hungry?

Lilith looked at Albert, then at the young beast that had twisted its body into a deformed shape, and her face turned red.

She didn't hesitate to think crookedly.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Unhappy suddenly took a step to the side, and the two black eye holes looked straight ahead, looking at Albert on the side. The black wizard didn't know why, and he stood up and was about to ask his taciturn companion, when he saw the skeleton warrior's gaze drop, and a black shadow flashed.

What a speed!

Albert's eyes jumped in shock, the figure was about the size of a little fox, but it was so fast that he could only see the afterimage, and if it weren't for the glow of the chestnut staff in his hand, he wouldn't even be able to see where it went.

"Huh?" Hu looked from the mage to the Skeleton Warrior, using Green's nickname for it

Albert glanced at him unhappily, but to his embarrassment, the Skeleton Warrior ignored his inquiry, instead turned his head without saying a word, facing the fork in the road, and then raised his steel sword in an offensive stance.

"Mr. Albert?" Lilith stood up, and the little thing was getting more and more noisy, and she paused for a moment and almost sat on the ground without being slammed.

The Black Wizard was puzzled, he didn't know what was going on at this moment.

Damn, you non-talking people are all nervous, what about us talking humans!

……

Huh? I don't seem to be human either.

Before Albert could spin around in his head, he heard a sudden rumbling sound in one of the three forks in the road ahead, and a rumbling sound kept approaching. Albert hurriedly sent out the tip of his staff, trying to illuminate the road ahead with the light, and vaguely, he saw a strangely shaped thing rushing quickly in this direction-

"Luna is on top! So、That's the magic chariot!? ”

Before Albert could react to what it was, it was the aristocratic daughter who screamed out in advance, and her voice finally reminded the Dark Wizard of these four big guys spinning wildly.

"Wizard mechanical scavenger?"

Albert suddenly realized, it is indeed very similar to the magic guide machinery of their time, speaking of which this thing is usually used for underground construction facilities, especially huge buildings like sewers, due to environmental problems, few people are willing to work here all year round, the warlocks at that time developed a magic guide device that can clean up garbage and eliminate blockages by themselves, but I didn't expect to be equipped with such a thing in the ruins of the dark elves, I haven't seen it for a long time......

But wait, if it was a magic guide device from a hundred years ago, I'm afraid no one would have come to maintain it, right?

In other words......

"This machine is not controlled!"

The black wizard was shocked into a cold sweat, and the machine that no one controlled could not identify the creatures on the way forward, but all the obstructions would be destroyed!

"Damn, don't pose—and Miss Lilith, run!"

Green leaned against the wall and listened for a few moments, looking puzzled as he retracted his movements.

As a solid medium, the effect of the dark elves as a rock for the wall to conduct sound is actually not bad, but this moment it rumbles and booms, and what is the matter with who is going to get married?

He held the Flame Shadow Sword at his waist, and he didn't understand it for a long time.

He has already put away the Ice Spirit Sword, he was not a qualified second sword in his previous life, and he doesn't plan to try it in this life, not to mention losing the traces of the Frost Demon and the Broken Sword Guard, holding the Ice Spirit Sword is useless, which only adds a chill.

"It's weird, I heard it here."

The boy scratched his head, but in fact, he was not very sure, he encountered many forks in the road along the way, and he couldn't remember how many turns he had made and how many detours he had made.

Curse the architect who designed this underground project!

Green thought viciously, and some undead sneezed inexplicably.

But hesitating here won't help him get out of his predicament, and Green knows it, so he shook his head helplessly and kept going. He had already made up his mind that if he couldn't find Assesis or Albert, he would have to complete the mission himself first, and then join them when he got the memories.

— if he can get out of the labyrinth.

Continuing to move forward, Green drew his Flame Shadow Sword, intermittently activating the Flame Blade to repel the creeping creatures that coveted their lives in the darkness. Although there will always be three or two blind people who try to crawl over and sneak attack Green, they are all flexibly avoided by the young man and nailed to the ground with his backhand.

But that's about it.

For a moment, he was checking his experience while killing monsters, and suddenly found that the EXP slot was rising wildly, and he was still stunned, "Could it be that Assesis and they have already killed the frost demon lair?" But later, there were too many sneak attack insects, and the consumption of energy made him have no intention of thinking about the process in other places, so he could only mobilize all his spirits to guard himself in all directions, to prevent a big monster from suddenly popping out, and he couldn't give himself a moment.

Hmmm-

The flame shadow in Green's hand swung out with a backhand, and threw a long whip of flame in the air, slamming it on the monster in the shadows. But to his surprise, this guy was not killed at the first time, he was just forced to retreat for a distance, and then he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then quickly rushed in the direction of Green.

Nima, said Cao Cao Cao arrived?

This elite monster came suddenly, and Green didn't have time to swing the sword of Segrete, so he could only slash down, hoping that the sharpness of the Flame Shadow could cut it in two.

The good news was that the Flame Shadow Sword did seem to be enough to threaten it, so much so that the monster quickly dodged Grimm's slash.

- The bad news, of course, is that Green's sword missed.

As if seeing that Green didn't have time to fight back, the monster that dodged the slash accelerated and sprinted, jumping up and crashing into Green. The other party's jumping ability is not strong, at most he jumps to the position of Green's chest, but the young man can clearly see the appearance of the monster approaching him, and the fine fangs suddenly make him make up his mind that he must not let this guy touch him!

Mysteries No. 4: Navigation Arrows!

A black arrow suddenly appeared under Green's feet, and an inexplicable force suddenly attacked him, and the young man's whole person suddenly seemed to be pulled by someone, and his feet fell to the ground with his feet forward and backwards, just avoiding the impact of the monster.

“…… It's terrible. ”

Green got up on his feet and couldn't help but bare his teeth. The fall just now broke all the wounds on his back, and he didn't have to look back to know that there must be no more blood behind him, and he just wanted to scold his mother. Compared to the instantaneous steps that require muscle power, the secret is indeed sudden enough, but unfortunately it is too difficult to control, and if you want to integrate into his combat habits, I am afraid that you don't know how to train.

"Hiss......"

The monster landed on the ground and turned around with a bang, two snake eyes staring at Grimm.

This is a lizard, Green opened the system to inspect, but because it was too dark to meet the detection conditions of the system's vision, it was difficult to identify what kind of monster it was.

But at least he had time to prepare - most advanced players have their own way of fighting against large creeping creatures.

First, ranged attacks prevent the opponent from approaching.

Green immediately condensed the magic element on his free left hand, and while the big lizard was still hissing and spitting out the letter, a magic fist smashed it over. The magic fist that does not use crystals has a relatively transparent image, and it is difficult to correctly judge its path in the dark, plus this move is not perfect, the big lizard was just about to bow his head to dodge, and the magic fist exploded at the closest distance, immediately enveloping the big lizard.

Secondly, block the opponent's forward route with longer weapons.

Compared to ordinary beasts, the characteristics of the parts on the body of the monster are more outstanding, and Green believes that the scales on that body are definitely not decorations, and sure enough, less than a second after the magic power burst, the big lizard roared and rushed out, and there were no scars on the body except for a small part of the depression. With a movement of Green's hand, the Flame Shadow Sword danced with the flames, turning into a thorn, and the sword stood in front of its head.

Finally, find a way to adjust the direction of your attack, and if the weapon in your hand is sharp enough, you can stab the opponent directly above the head to end the fight.

The tip of the sword with flames made the big lizard at a loss, it tried to break through several times, but was forced back by Grimm, three times and twice, the big guy looked a little annoyed, and Green knew that his opportunity had come. He deliberately flicked his sword in the other direction to make way for the lizard. After being blocked for a long time, he finally saw the gap, not to mention how happy this demonic beast was, it was already pitiful with a small brain, and he didn't want to think about it at this time, so he rushed towards Green with a dull head.

The boy smiled slightly, "Idiot." ”

Instantaneous!

Before the big lizard could open its mouth and bite into Green's calf, the boy's muscles burst with strength and rushed forward diagonally into the air. The big lizard's eyes flickered, and suddenly he found that his target had disappeared, and his pupils were still a little dazed, and Green, who rushed to the top of the channel rock, kicked back, and shot at the back of the big lizard's head like a blast of wind!

A sword thrust!

Green's movements are coherent and smooth, even if the opponent is a well-trained swordsman, it may be difficult to react at the first time, and the sword that is faster than lightning is even more unguardable.

Poof—

Sure enough, the big lizard didn't have time to defend or dodge, so it could only be pierced through the skull by this sword.

But Green still miscalculated, the scales of the big lizard were indeed extraordinary, but they were comparable to it, as well as its unique secretion of slippery substance, which directly led Zhì Green to stab his sword crookedly and pass through the upper part of the big lizard's throat.

"Shhh

The big lizard screamed in pain, and Green only heard the sound of the wind behind his head, and immediately made a decision, and hurriedly abandoned the flame shadow and fell to the side, just in time to see its big blade-like tail flick up, almost slapping on his back.

The boy let out a thrilling scream, then shook off his right hand and grasped the Ice Spirit Sword that appeared out of thin air.

The second time, you weren't so lucky.

Thinking like this, Green waved the ice spirit in his hand, threw out a sharp cold light, and slashed at the injured side of the big lizard, and at this moment, a cold shout suddenly came from the passage in front of him: "Stop! ”

Then a bit of murderous aura quickly flashed into Green's eyes.

Someone sneak attacked!

(P.S.: Eh, it's still a chapter.)
